You're My Mate (BL)

33 Curiosity

Leon

—–

I entered Mr. Henderson’s mansion and went straight to my room; Mr. Henderson had prepared a separate room for me to occupy.

But I don’t know where David’s room is because, from the first time I came here, I’ve only been in an all-white room where Mr. Henderson’s infirmary is.

The room I have here is more spacious than the one in Ohio. Twice as wide as my room which I usually call my most comfortable cave.

I sat on the bed daydreaming, imagining what my parents were doing at home.

“Maybe the two of them don’t think about me at all right now because they feel that I’m safe with Mr. Henderson,” I muttered with a faint smile staring blankly ahead.

I reached into my cell phone, which was in my pants pocket, then immediately looked for my mother’s number. I wanted to call her, asking what she was doing.

The phone rings, indicating that my call has been connected to her cellphone.

.....

“Hello, Leon, what’s up honey?”

I smiled when I heard my mother’s voice, who was busy preparing dinner; I knew that Mother must be preparing dinner at this hour.

“It’s okay; I’m just curious about what Mom is doing right now,” I asked pleasantly.

“Haha, you must know what I’m doing now,” She asked back.

“Haha, of course; Mom must be busy in the kitchen making dinner, right?” I asked, guessing.

“Haha, yup, that’s right.”

Silence became instantaneous when my mother and I just laughed simultaneously; I couldn’t deny that I missed her.

“Miss you, mom!”

“Miss you, Honey.”

I widen my eyes when we both say the same line. We both chuckle back then my mom says, “Are you okay?”

“Sure, I’m fine. The new school is so much fun, Mom!” I said with a big smile.

“Ahhh, I see; I hope you get to know David, okay?”

I was silent for a moment when Mother said those words; it was like she knew David even though we hadn’t met face to face yet.

“Ah yes, Honey, I’ll hang up the phone first, then continue cooking dinner,”

“Ah yes, good night, Mom!”

Tut-tut~

I just said goodbye to her, but my mother hung up the call.

I silently stared blankly ahead while taking a slow breath; Maybe my Mother was busy. When will I be able to see my parents again?

If you’re close, you never get along, but if you’re far, you’ll miss it too.

I put my cell phone on the bed and walked to the window in my room. I approached and found the view from the window in my room was so beautiful.

Oh yeah, the place where I live now is on a hill, so the view of the city below looks so beautiful if there is no fog covering it. I think the night view will be more beautiful.

Talking about the atmosphere of the night, I immediately remembered what Mr. Henderson had said earlier when he came home from school.

“Are the two of them going to do the full moon night ritual?” I mumbled while holding my chin to think about what the two would do.

Maybe tonight I’ll witness the ritual of What Mr. Henderson meant. Because I don’t think he will invite me to see the ritual that will be carried out by the two of them.

Ring~

I looked over to where my cell phone was when I got an incoming message.

Immediately I rushed to see Who had just messaged me.

“Tonight doesn’t go anywhere, and stay in the room! Lock your room! And don’t pay attention to anything that’s heard if you hear it. For your safety!”

“David Henderson~.”

I frowned instantly when I read the message just sent by David; it turns out he has my number and just sent me a message.

The prohibition he gave made me even more curious about the ritual. What exactly the two of them would do?

Because if so, there must be something hidden that I can’t see.

Will the two of them prey on someone?

I shudder to think that if that’s true, then will they force innocent people as sacrifices on a full moon night ritual?

My mind can’t calm down when I think about it, especially after David texted me with such threats.

David gave me the last sentence: “for your safety!” That sentence seemed to make me really can’t think what the two of them would do.

I can’t let it go; I must find out what they will do.

~Two hours later...

I heard a knock on my bedroom door, I slowly opened the door, but there was no one at my door.

I looked down, and there was a Dinner dish with a letter on the tray.

Immediately I took the dinner dish on the tray and brought it into the room; I immediately locked my door and read the letter on my dinner tray.

“Don’t go anywhere. Stay in your room and lock your door. This full moon night ritual won’t last long, so staying in your room is better. This is dinner I have prepared for you; enjoy!”

“Patrick Henderson~.”

I’m getting more and more confused about what’s going to happen tonight, the full moon might appear in a few hours, But it seems Mr. Henderson has prepared something I shouldn’t know.

And that, of course, made me even more curious.

I ran to look towards my bedroom window but had not seen that the full moon had appeared to light up the night.

Maybe the full moon will appear to light up the night in an hour or two more.

While waiting for the full moon to appear, I thought of a way to leave my room unnoticed and find out what ritual the two would perform.

Because in times of panic like this, I can’t enjoy the dinner Mr. Henderson has made because surely everything will taste bad if I don’t enjoy the food.

~1 hour passed...

I looked out the window again, and a bright light emerged from Behind the Dark Clouds.

“The night of the full moon has appeared; I have to get out of my room immediately!” I said with a faint smile, looking for a way to get out of my room without the two of them getting caught.
